== History ==
Prior to October 2002, the party was known as [[Nagaland People's Council]] (NPC).<ref name="NPF Reference1">{{cite journal |last1=Dr Tapan |first1=Das |title=Regionalism and Political Party in North-East India: A Case Study of Naga People’s Front |date=21 August 2019 |volume=8 |issue=09 |pages=6 |url=http://www.ijhssi.org/papers/vol8(9)/Series-1/A0809010106.pdf |access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref> The name of the party was changed from Nagaland People's Council (NPC) to Nagaland People's Front (NPF) in the Ninth General Convention held at Kohima in October 2002. This historic decision found wide acceptance among the people of the state, as a popular wish of the state was to modify the leadership of the state and make it more inclusive.

In Nagaland, both the ruling Naga People's Front and the opposition party, the [[United Progressive Alliance|UPA]], supported [[Pranab Mukherjee]] during the 2012 presidential election. Mukherjee held a meeting with Neiphiu Rio and DAN legislators in [[Dimapur]] where NPF leaders formally endorsed their support.

Mukherjee won the election on 19 July 2012. When the ''Nagaland Post'' asked the Chief Minister, Neiphiu Rio, if the support extended to the presidential candidate was also "issue based" as the NPF-led DAN was supporting the UPA government at the centre on the same line, the Chief Minister said that his party was supporting the UPA and hence it was the right perspective that the DAN legislators also support UPA’s presidential nominee. NPF's main opposition in the legislative assembly is the [[Indian National Congress]] party.

Although the Naga People's Front has local arrangements with the [[National Democratic Alliance (India)|NDA]] it previously had not support either the NDA or the [[United Progressive Alliance|UPA]] in the [[Government of India|central government]]<ref>[http://www.newindpress.com/NewsItems.asp?ID=IEH20080711093241&Page=H&Title=Top+Stories&Topic=472& Northeast MPs divided over n-deal - Newindpress.com]{{dead link|date=December 2017|bot=InternetArchiveBot|fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> where it has 1 MP in the [[Lok Sabha]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://164.100.47.132/LssNew/Members/partywiselist.aspx|title=Sixteenth Lok Sabha Party-wise All Members|work=[[Lok Sabha]]|access-date=2 September 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151018225726/http://164.100.47.132/LssNew/Members/partywiselist.aspx|archive-date=18 October 2015}}</ref>

For the 2014 General Election, the North-East Regional Political Front (NERPF), a consortium of 10 regional parties, including the Naga People's Front announced their support for the NDA.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-newdelhi/northeast-front-backs-nda/article6014410.ece | title=Northeast front backs NDA | date=16 May 2014 | newspaper=The Hindu | access-date=25 August 2018 }}</ref>

Currently the NPF is a part of [[North-East Regional Political Front]] consisting of political parties of the northeast which has supported the [[National Democratic Alliance (India)]].

On 11 May 2015, all of the assembly's Congress MLAs joined the NPF.<ref>{{cite web | title=Nagaland Congress MLAs to explain move to join NPF - India News | website=The Times of India | date=2015-05-11 | url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/naga-congress-mlas-to-explain-move-to-join-npf/articleshow/47225607.cms | access-date=2021-03-14}}</ref>

46 MLAs from the 60 member [[Nagaland Legislative Assembly]] are from the NPF. The opposition, Congress, is represented by 18 MLAs and the rest of the assembly consists of 7 independent MLAs.

In May 2016, after the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] led [[National Democratic Alliance (India)|National Democratic Alliance]] formed its first government in [[Assam]], a new alliance called the [[North-East Democratic Alliance]] (NEDA) was formed with [[Himanta Biswa Sarma]] as its convener. The Chief Ministers of the north eastern states of [[Sikkim]], [[Assam]], [[Arunachal Pradesh]] and [[Nagaland]] too belong to this alliance. Thus, the Naga People's Front joined the BJP led NEDA.
On 18 May 2019,NPF pulled out of NDA Government in Manipur.

==Aims and Objectives==
The aims and objectives of the [[Nagaland Peoples Front|Naga Peoples Front]] are:

(a)To work and assist in any possible manner on any approach for a peaceful solution of the Indo-Naga political issue, keeping alive at the same time the fire of relentless endeavour to stand against any force to further divide the [[Naga people|Nagas]] and thereby move towards a renaissance of Naga brotherhood by making constant appeal to Naga conscience. 
(b) To strive to bring about electoral reforms suited to our way of life aimed at a national resurgence in the society towards whom the Party is duty bound and thereby to liberate the Naga society from the deadly clutches of degeneration. 
(c) To work for unity and integrity of the people by integrating all contiguous Naga inhabited areas under one administrative roof and also to provide protection to all the ethnic groups who are indigenous inhabitants of the State. 
(d) To restore the good name and clean image which the Nagas enjoyed in the past by taking the fight against all forms of corruption at all levels of Government. 
(e) To restore to the people the self-discipline and the spirit of self-reliance which the Nagas had in abundance in the past but which
have been seriously eroded in the recent past. 
(f) To work for economic advancement of the people with special emphasis on rural development with a view to removing economic disparity in the society. 
(g) To strive for a clean and efficient administration. 
(h) To strictly abide by the Rule of Law in the dispensation of Justice.
